What kind of ads or ‘suggested’ content gets pushed to you the most on the internet? Make up your new identity based on the ad/suggested content you get served the most.
Algorithm(s) thinks I’m a menopausal Latina woman who loves cats, and wants to drive a truck/SUV. I also get a ton of of the ‘is your boyfriend/husband abusing you?’ type of therapy-talk content, which is hilarious.
Most of my ads are for menstrual products and std/hormone pharma drugs, then it’s a mix of cat/pet product ads and lots of truck/suv ads. At least 1/3 are in spanish.
Only one of these that is remotely accurate is I do have a cat.
I don’t see a ton of ads, but when they get through, it’s often something I recently purchased. I’m pretty sure my bank or the merchants are selling my transaction info but why they want to advertise to someone who already made a purchase I don’t know. It’s not even necessarily expensive purchases I would research online (though it can be). I had it happen with a 50ml bottle of Vodka. I bought it and when I got home the ad-overlords started spamming me with ads for the brand.
